1) Probably.
We’re a quiet, vegetarian species that mostly lives within our own borders, which just so happens to be largely docile forests and rolling, green hills. There are some intimidating species and climates out there.
2) Deflation implies a change in the economic value of money and goods. There really hasn’t been one here; things are just valued differently. That could change. There’s been talks for a while about altering the way our current legal tender works, but nothing has happened yet. At least as far as I know.
3) Exactly! What if those caverns were just mined out from a past civilization? Diamond Dogs couldn’t have done it; Griffon history began tracking the caverns before they ever ascended. Griffons and Dragons couldn’t have done it all, right? I mean, it’s all over the world!
4) Bon-Bon: Well- not that there’s anything wrong with it, dear. But I’m not really a wallflower myself. Lyra just tends to steal the show.
Bon-Bon: Largely novels by pony authors; I don’t think you’d know any of them. There’s this author, Anaphora Syntax, that writes these stories with similar themes. They all take place in popular religious settings, but from the view point of average folks. I’ve read a bunch of hers. The one I’m on right now- the perspective just changed for the third time. It’s been going down the line from mother to daughter. The second mother just died and her daughter, the new main character, hasn’t found out yet.
1) Well… I don’t like to talk about it much because I know it sounds so crazy, but… See, I think your human Earth is the same planet as ours. I think this whole internet/ponynet connection thing has created some form of message time travel. I don’t know which of us comes first, but clearly something must have happened that stops humans and us from ever meeting.
